RACES Writing Sentence and Paragraph Frames are an effective, scaffolded approach that will support your emerging writers. If your students are struggling when responding to text-dependent prompts, paragraph frames are the answer! I've seen first-hand how RACES writing templates help students learn to write more thorough, elaborate, and organized constructed responses. *PLEASE NOTE: This is the same as RACES Paragraph Frames Practice, but this one also includes digital Google Drive versions and editable PowerPoint files that you can customize for your students. When I say that this lesson includes AWESOME resources to teach your students how to write constructed responses, I am not joking. In addition to the EDITABLE file and links to Google Drive DIGITAL versions, this is what is included: lesson plans for 4 days (color-coded) mini PowerPoint presentation that doubles as a RACES poster (the extensive intro. to RACES lessons are in the RACES PowerPoint resource) a nonfiction practice passage on two levels for differentiation a short story 3 prompts on two levels graphic organizers sentence frames RACES paragraph frames- a variety of templates sample paragraph response for modeling entrance slips for each day exit slips for each day a rubric and a bonus file of blank paragraph frames for future use Since the nonfiction passage AND the planning and prompt pages come on two levels, you'll be able to differentiate for all learners. By the time you finish, your students will have an awesome grasp of what is required when they write a short response to literature. If you want to continue using the paragraph frames, you can use the frames in the bonus file, which can be easily edited and adapted to work with ANY writing response. Look at the preview to see more of what is included. And prepare for EXTRAORDINARY results!
